Baltimore Gang Member Nicknamed "Butt Juice" Sentenced to Life in Prison

Lamont Jones, commonly known by the unfortunate nickname "Butt Juice" has been ordered by a Federal Judge to serve a life sentence in prison as a result of his criminal activity as part of a gang.

U.S. District Judge George Russell III convicted Jones of racketeering conspiracy and had reason to believe he played a hand in murder, robberies, and drug trafficking.

Jones was allegedly part of the Cherry Hill street gang called Up Da Hill, a gang which was involved in a turf war with other Baltimore street gangs. He had previously been indicted in 2015 for being involved in gang related incidents as far back as the year 2000.

Prosecutors also believe Jones took part in at least four different murder attempts. He pleaded guilty to a charge related to the shooting of a drug dealer in 2012 and was already in prison serving a 10-year sentence for it.
